Why ISIS Attacked Paris

How exactly do you propose we help the refugees? We're already failing to integrate culturally Muslim populations, and this failure is very much responsible for the current wave of radicalization. I don't see why accepting hoards of refugees should yield different consequences now.

In the UK we seem to be failing to integrate populations quite knowingly and deliberately, by promoting separatist faith schools for religions of all persuasions, including Islam, radical and otherwise, and various fringey forms of Christianity.

This is curious behaviour in a society that's become increasingly and adamantly secular.

I have no idea how Rest of World does it, but government policy on this issue is either insane, sinister, or both.

Short term: food and a safe place to sleep.

Longer term: end the Middle East war(s), stop treating everyone who looks like they're from the Middle East like they're terrorists (or at the very least terrorist supporters).

Make peace in Syria, and help them rebuild their lives there.

Agreed, but that will involve killing people.
